Former President Donald Trump is in panic mode as the deadline approaches to secure a half-billion-dollar bond to appeal his civil fraud case in New York, according to multiple sources familiar with his thinking.
Shortly before 6:30 a.m. Tuesday, Trump took those grievances public, posting on his social media platform eight times within two hours about the deadline, arguing that he shouldn’t have to put up the money and worrying that he “would be forced to mortgage or sell Great Assets, perhaps at Fire Sale prices, and if and when I win the Appeal, they would be gone.”
“Does that make sense? WITCH HUNT. ELECTION INTERFERENCE!” the former president wrote.
I was really hoping for the Chewbacca Defense to make an appearance towards the end there.
"They made Han Solo sell the Millennium Falcon too, yeah, that’s right! He got sued by some tentacle-haired flunky and he had to sell it to that woke “Ray” kid for peanuts. What kind of name is “Ray” for a girl, anyway? It’s way too butch, if you ask me. They won’t like me saying that, but it’s true…
How does a civil suit by a state, NOT federal, against your company that has been conducting fraud in said state for YEARS, being held accountable [finally] somehow equal election interference?
Unless you were going to use those properties to either gain some kind of advantage in the election, or to enrich yourself with foreign influence dollars post election. 🤔
He thinks it’s election interference because anything that makes him look bad is election interference. Any narrative that he doesn’t personally control is unfair.
